social studies words we need to know

today In social studies we had to know some words  and then we had to do a thing about Martin Luther-King then we had to look at a video about Brown vs Board

Segregation

Separating people from one another based on ethnicity, race, gender or sexuality are just a few examples of segregation. A prime example of segregation is the divide between ‘white’ and ‘black’ people in the US, which has gone on for centuries.

Integration

The integration of alters, if it happens, does not mean an alter goes away. Integration means to combine two or more ”things” in this case alters, in order to become more effective. All the alters have their own knowledge and skill sets. When one integrates alters, that knowledge and those skill sets are combined.

Racism

the belief that different races possess distinct characteristics, abilities, or qualities, especially so as to distinguish them as inferior or superior to one another.

Discrimination 

the unjust or prejudicial treatment of different categories of people, especially on the grounds of race, age, sex, or disability. 

Non Violent Resistance

Nonviolent resistance (NVR), or nonviolent action, sometimes called civil resistance, is the practice of achieving goals such as social change through symbolic protests, civil disobedience, economic or political noncooperation, satyagraha, constructive program, or other methods, while refraining from violence and the threat of violence

Equality

They’re guarantees of equal social opportunities and protection under the law, regardless of race, religion, or other characteristics. Examples are the rights to vote, to a fair trial, to government services, and to a public education.

Multivariate Analysis

 

Problem: 

I wonder if the median Typing speed of males is faster than the typing speed of females for all Hornby High School students..

 

Plan: 

My variables are Typing speed (wpm) and Gender.

 

We gathered the data by:

  1. Using a device, students will go on Human benchmark and select the typing speed test.
  2. Human benchmark will give students random paragraphs that students will need to fill out. Students typing speed will be reduced for inaccuracies.  
  3. Students will put their typing speed (wpm) and their gender into a spreadsheet.

 

Data:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1UnmU6TnOHONFKV-dkhnd4A5hlW0eE7t_N39UJwCcH1I/edit#gid=0

 

Analysis:

  • Center:
    The median typing speed of females  is 37(wpm).
    The median   _________of males is 58(wpm).

We can see that males  is faster than females by 24 (wpm).

  • Spread:

The IQR for females is 21 (wpm).

The IQR for males  is 29(wpm).

We can see that males has more variety of typing speed  than females.

 

Conclusion: 

Because the median typing speed  of males is significantly higher than females , there is enough evidence that males are faster typers than females at Hornby High School.

Instructions

1.get your equipment ready.

2.you need two  straws and a  plastic bag.

3.then cut your straw in half by slitting the ends of that straw.

4. then  it can more easily go into the other straws

5. get your plastic bag then get your straw thing you made and put it in the plastic bag.

6. then get your candle and put it on the straw thing.

7. then light it up on fire and see if it has gone up in the air.

plants

what is a plant

a plant is a living thing that can turn sunlight water and c02 into food

 

why do plants have roots

to get water so they can grow

and to stand the plant up

 

why do plants have a stem

the stem mean the plant is growing

why do leaves go on the plant

leaves on a plant mean it is going good

why do seeds go on plants

that mean that a  flower  is go

 

plant cell

 

 

 

nucleus the nucleus contains the genetic material

cytoplasm the cytoplasm is the jelly -filling where chemical  reactions occur

cell membrane  is a skin that allows  water to soak through

mitochondria  the mitochondria makes energy for the cell

cell wall  the cell wall is a hard shell that protects the cell and keeps its shape

vacuole  thee vacuole is the  large water bubble in the middle of the cell

chloroplast  the chloroplast contains green chlorophyll that turns sunlight into sugar

 

 

animal cells do not have a cell wall or chloroplasts.

 

 

 

leaves

why do plants have leaves

nature’s food factories, converting the light from the sun into energy to help plants grow.

 

 

 

 

the top layer is called the cuticle . this protects the leaf.

the top and the bottom skin of the leaf are called the epidermis .

the palisade cells contains chloroplasts, which contains a chemical called chlorophyll.

the stomata are the holes underneath the leaf . co2 enters and o2 leaves through the holes.
